Hello and Welcome!

Photographer, writer, blogger, in varying order. Determined to live a full and creative life despite chronic pain and depression. I live in lovely Minneapolis, Minnesota and am happily married to George and doggie-mama to Fiona. I prefer my sweaters cozy, my sundresses flowery, and my wine Riesling. I love nature, books, flowers, history, theology, family mementos and all things vintage.

I frequently use Lightroom presets along with Photoshop textures and actions in my photography, and when I do, I turn to Denise Love of 2 Lil’Owls. I use her work almost exclusively because the quality is superb and I’ve never found anything else I like half as well!

A place to share insight and information about the many forms of writer’s resistance (writer’s block, procrastination, distractions, looking for answers in the fridge, keeping yourself too busy to write, etc.) so you can stop resisting and start really enjoying your writing.
